Avocado is also called avocado because its skin is rough like a crocodile. Although it is a fruit, it is not as tender and sweet as fruit, and it is diss by many people because of its unique taste, but many people like its delicate taste like butter. Because of its high nutrition, it was regarded as a super fruit by North Americans long before it became popular all over the world.
Lynn Cooper, a famous American nutritionist, pointed out, "Avocado is rich in unsaturated fatty acids and minerals, which can promote the baby's brain development." The fat content of each avocado (about 15g) is as high as 2 g. Because of its high-quality fat, soft texture and mellow taste, people call it "forest cream", which is called "brain food" by Americans and listed as "the most nutritious fruit in the world" by Guinness Book of Records.
At the age of -3, the baby's brain develops rapidly, and the demand for fat increases greatly. As an important source of fat, avocado can make up for this gap by eating it often. Furthermore, avocado is rich in lutein and zeaxanthin. These two antioxidants can protect our eyes and help our baby's visual development.
when is the best time to give it to the baby?
Avocado has a lot of lipids, but the baby's stomach is delicate and the digestive system is not well developed, so it is recommended that the baby eat rice flour paste, vegetable paste and fruit paste containing fortified iron for a period of time before adding them one by one. Give the baby a little taste at the first bite, and continue feeding after observing that there are no adverse reactions for a day or two. When adding, we must follow the principle of from less to more. Some parents are elated when they see that the baby loves to eat, and happily let the baby eat a big bowl, which brings a burden to the baby's stomach and is complacent.
banana-flavored avocado puree (reference age: 7 months)
Ingredients: half avocado, half banana, and proper amount of formula milk or warm water
Practice: peeled avocado, peeled and diced banana, then put them into a cooking cup, and then pour the prepared milk powder or warm water directly, and beat them into a delicate creamy shape. Isn't it very simple?
nutrition tips: bananas are known as "smart fruits", and their nutrition is also very good. Avocados have a unique flavor, and babies may not be used to eating them directly, while bananas are soft, waxy and sweet, which can improve the taste of avocados, so that babies can eat more fragrant. However, when picking bananas, you must choose ripe ones, otherwise you will not only be unable to relax, but also aggravate constipation.

Nutrition tip: Like avocado, eggs are also foods with high nutritional density, and the lutein and zeaxanthin in yolk are no less than avocados.
